With Trump safely secluded away in New Jersey where the only damage he can do is over Twitter and with a golf club, the world looks elsewhere for its outrage. They found it in UK Labour party leader Jeremy Corbyn helping a woman with her baby carriage.
Jeremy Corbyn. You are an absolute diamond. @jeremycorbynpic.twitter.com/sTO35cWxYd

The video, originally posted by one of his staffers, shows the leader of the Labour party literally just assisting a woman in lifting up a carriage. It’s worth noting that nearly everybody in the modern world has a camera with them at all times in their pocket, staffers or otherwise. And, stunt or not, it’s still a pretty low-stakes situation in general. There’s no political platform being espoused here.
It’s the most light-hearted, insignificant story ever, and it would be insane for anyone to have an extreme reaction. So, obviously, the anti-labour contingent was pissed. Here are some tweets proving that Hell hath no fury like a bunch of bored Brits on a Tuesday:
I like how Corbyn helped a woman with a pram and it was all perfectly captured on camera. The complete and utter fraud.

Did the mother and bsby get an appearance fee from the Labour Party?
